Low levels of AT, PC, or PS were frequently detected in patients with PVT or mesenteric vein thrombosis, and 4 mutations in the PS gene, 3 mutations in the PC gene, and 2 mutations in AT the gene were detected.
The factor V (FV) G1691A mutation, the prothrombin (PT) G20210A variant, the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) T677T genotype, together with fasting homocysteine (HCY) concentration, lipoprotein (Lp)(a), anti-thrombin (AT), protein C (PC), protein S (PS) and anti-cardiolipin antibodies were investigated in 65 consecutively recruited infants (neonate to < 12 months) with renal venous thrombosis (RVT; n = 31), portal vein thrombosis (PVT; n = 24) or hepatic vein thrombosis (HVT n = 10), and 100 age- and sex-matched healthy controls.
